State Of Haryana vs Subash Chander Marwaha And Ors on 2 May, 1973
"xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx xx
A perusal of the above judgment would show that reference in
the same was made to the Kothari Committee's Report on the
"Recruitment Policy and Selection Methods for the Civil Services
Examination", in which, it has been pointed out that in respect of
interviews where a written test is also to be held, the number of
candidates to be called for interview should not exceed twice the
number of vacancies to be filled. Reference in the said judgment was
made to the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in case titled as
'State of Haryana Vs. Subash Chander Marwahal', reported as
(1974) 1 SCR 165, in which, it has been held that there was nothing
arbitrary in fixing the score of 55% for the purpose of selection
although a candidate obtaining 45% was eligible to be appointed as
per the relevant rule.
